David Bowie - Sorrow Lyrics
With your long blonde hair
and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you
was sorrow
Sorrow
to spend my money
You're out there playing your high class games of sorrow
Sorrow
You never do what you know you oughta
Something tells me
you're a Devil's daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
Ahhhh, ah, ahhhh
I tried to find her
'Cause I can't resist her
(I tried to find her)
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
With your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
With your long blonde hair

David Bowie Sorrow Comments
Ismaila Soro 💚🧡
The greatest cover ever!
The soundtrack to my early/later life
His voice is so contrived and phony, like most Bowie. Like his model-looking ass ever knew sorrow.
Sandra...sandra...oweew sandra...
4 years without this amazing artist, I miss him every day more. Thank you for the legacy you leaved us.
Happy birthday David x
Today's the birthday of this remarkable artist. Happy birthday, Bowie.
Takes me back to 1979 with the love of my life, who coincidentally had long blonde hair and eyes of blue. My beautiful Michelle MH.
With your short red hair and your multi colored eye of grey and blue
Wow nobody here from metal gear solid 3. I'm not but just surprised
Ok...Penelope Amadeus ...
So 1975 is a long way off
But when PAH is burned in
For
Ever
It's still
Just
Like
Yes

Day.
My first Bowie album, actually, it was on 8-track.
Man I miss him...
Only put thumbs down if you don't know good music 🍺🍻😊
Although it was great cover, the best thing about it was, it had Amsterdam in the B side
I love David's covers... He is so great
reminds me of an affair i had in early 1974.
We all been there David!
Bowie gave “sorrow “ the soul and passion it lacked when performed by others !
Twig the wonder kid. ....
November 18 2019 anyone?
Hell yeah!
I am the devil's daughter 😻
So cool🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻😊😄😀😃😂
"Sorrow" is a song first recorded by the McCoys in 1965 and released as the B-side to their cover of "Fever". It became a big hit in the United Kingdom in a version by the Merseys, reaching number 4 on the UK chart on 28 April 1966.[1] A version by David Bowie charted worldwide in 1973.
A line from the song – "With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue" – is used in the Beatles song "It's All Too Much" which was featured on their 1969 album Yellow Submarine.
Lyrics
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
You acted funny trying to spend my money
You're out there playing your high class games of sorrow
Sorrow
You never do what you know you oughta
Something tells me you're a Devil's daughter
Sorrow, sorrow
Ahhhh, ah, ahhhh
I tried to find her
'Cause I can't resist her (I tried to find her)
I never knew just how much I missed her
Sorrow
Sorrow
With your long blonde hair and your eyes of blue
The only thing I ever got from you was sorrow
Sorrow
Oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh, oh-oh
With your long blonde hair
I couldn't sleep last night
With your long blonde hair

Beautiful voice and just an overall great song
Bowie's version more closely resembles the original by The McCoys, not the cover by The Merseys. The double tracked lead vocal really sets Bowie's version apart, and the violin, and the feel and dynamics of the track make it the real stand out, IMHO.
The second "sorrow" he sings is absolute beauty
LOVE...L.O.V.E. XoxO
My favorite song by David
My brother introduced this to me as a 9 yr old in the seventies loved it ever since
Please excuse my ignorance, but, I am curious here, since I saw Bowie with a sax.....was Bowie playing the sax on this???
First holiday in Spain with my mate callers 1973 16 years old always reminds me of it
Going strong in 2019 xxx RIL mister Bowie 💖🌹🎧
Sorrow , an old fashioned term , but can be apt 2019 to real sadness , that never leaves you x
OH SO TRUE....BUT I AM OVER..ITMAYBE ITS YOUR TIME TOOOOOOO CRYYYYY??????????????????????????
Great track got it all
My mom and dad's wedding song lol Rip u 2
While David Bowie didn't write song, Once He covered a song it sort of became his.
That sax and the strings always get me.
OHHH SO THRUE....
Memories!
Ther is an timemachine....it's call "YOU TUBE"!
sorrow has to be the best song on pin ups
Even the great David Bowie did covers, but this is one of the best ever...😍
Even the great David Bowie did covers, but this is one of the best ever...😍
Brilliant song RIP Bowie
It is impossible to talk to women in this day and age of sorrow. They are better than men and they will always have a chip on their shoulder towards men in a land of gender inequality. It will always be the same since it is human nature and women are always attracted to powerful men despite how rotten he appears to be.
Sorrow is.....??
Love this song, probably the best of David's
It's not David Bowie's song. It's a cover version of someone else.
@Paul Savage i dont care 😄
The first ear hanger for me from David Bowie
SADLY BUT OHHH SO TRUE
I stilll have your album fifty something years later. I still listen to it and i am now 66. May you be with GOD now. We love you David.
not quite 50.
My sound track,brilliance
Love David Bowie he is extremely genius he is like no other.
Jean Sullivan yes Jean he is or I should sadly say WAS ! One hell of a gifted man .Sadly will be missed .
Talking about my ex-wife ... SORROW was ALL I ever got off you... Good luck to the sucker who "Took you on"
Yeah but ...... her long blonde hair? Her eyes of blue ? Beauty writes its own rules hon .......
Out and out bowie
must be one of the best covers of all time
Прекрасно
ThA sax and violin makes me get up
From a lifetime fan ,goodbye david sleep well mate ,you are now in the world's best group (hendrix,joe cocker,joplin,morrison,and many many more )thanks for many years of music,see you on the other side
See that mulatta chick? Which one? There's only one. Yes, alright I
see her now. She is the only 1 who's worth helping...helping myself
to. Jesus H. Christus & Virgin Mary Christmas. Tell me, after I die:
What's her name and what's she doing? She is being fitted for a bra
by a bra expert. Holy brown cow! Somewhere bra experts are being
hired right now! Who knew that it is vaguely untrue? A tight, white
brassiere strangulates luscious pink teats till they turn cyanide blue.
The way he sang this made it an original
Ese saxo suena celestial!
Grande David Bowie
tiz a gem x
I placed that fresh vinyl
I was singing this to my shampoo bottle in the shower this morning
Nice one .
Keep on doing it .
I do that to .
No matter how much I try I just cant get that bowie sound .
Bought it in 75 when I was 15 still play it now. Top draw.
Twiggy and Bowie on album cover.
Anyone 60 years old will know that they are all "covers".
Knew decades ago

Ahh Bowie; so good for a decade, so shit for four more

True Story.
Kristie Ann Paterson...
Back in a time when music was real and still resonates today. My all-time Bowie fav.

No it's definitely Twiggy.
@Ann White sure looks like her
Just checked and you are right!

Beautiful song.
BOWIE WORTH HIS WEIGHT IN GOLD..

Trevor Boulder.
What a tune!
Always loved this Song !! Mister, David Bowie. COME BACK !!
Best version of this song ever. The way the sax plays off counter harmonies. Brilliant playful.
Immortal
Thats Me
I have seen CD credits for the alto sax solo given to David and (in a few sites) to Ken Fordham but it also indicates that Ken played bari sax. Does anyone know who played the alto solo? Thanks.
Mr DB himself. He plays alto and tenor sax.
@Julio Hernanz Thanks!
